USING REMOTE SETUP
The PrintMaster 8000se Series printers may be completely configured for
operation by using the front panel buttons to access the printer setup menus.
In addition, many of the items that can be configured via the front panel
setup menus can also be configured remotely as described in this chapter.
Remote Setup via Windows Application
Printek provides a remote setup program for Windows 95, 98, 2000 and
NT users. This provides a convenient method for graphically configuring
the printer. Visit www.printek.com to download the free application.
Remote Setup via Generic Text File
Remote setup commands are placed in a remote setup file on a host
computer. This file may then be sent to the printer. The remote setup file
must be a text only file* with each line terminated by a Line Feed (LF)
character.
The available commands listed below are shown with a combination of
upper and lower case letters to enhance readability. However, the
commands are not case sensitive. All characters are converted to upper
case before processing (except for form names, which are contained in
double quotes). White space may also be inserted to enhance readability; it
will be stripped from the commands before processing.
Each line of the file is processed individually, and must conform to one of
four possible formats:
1. A blank line (ignored).
2. A comment line, which begins with a semicolon ";" (ignored).
3. A heading line, which is enclosed in square brackets "[]".
4. An item setup line, of the format item=value.
